Difference between seamless and erw pipe?
ERW (Electric Resistance Welding) pipe is manufactured by rolling metal and then welding it longitudinally across its length. Seamless pipe is manufactured by extruding the metal to the desired length; hence ERW pipe has a welded joint in its cross-section, while seamless pipe does not have any joint in its cross-section through-out its length.
What is the difference between seamless and non-seamless pipes?
Non-seemless pipe is rolled from a flat piece of metal and welded lengthways to form the piping. Seemless pipe is extruded and has no seems and is generally stronger.
What is the difference between seamless and welded pipe fittings?
Seamless (SMLS) pipe is formed by drawing a solid billet over a piercing rod to create the hollow shell. Seamless pipe withstands pressure better than other types, and is often more easily available than welded pipe.Welded pipe is formed by rolling plate and welding the seam. The weld flash can be removed from the outside or inside surfaces using a scarfing blade. The weld zone can also be heat treated to make the seam less visible.
What mean smls pipe?
Seamless pipe
What is the difference between hot finish seamless pipe and cold drawn seamless pipe?
A cold drawn seamless pipe has better dimensional tolerance, a higher surface finish and better mechanical properties than an equivalent hot finish seamless pipe. For applications that can make use of the thinner pipe walls and closer tolerances, a cold drawn seamless pipe is the better option.
